Half Life: Alyx!!!

sillyfool

I've heard it won't work on the Index is this true?

Where did you hear that?

Since it's a Valve game (presumably) created to promote Valve hardware this seems highly unlikely.

Since it's not even formally announced yet, this just seems like a daft rumour that only a silly fool would believe,

Sorry mate it was a silly joke, based on the fact it's a Valve game for Valve hardware as you say.

The excitement is ruining my humour, which was previously impeccable.

lol i would be a sizable sum against that.

i doubt it will natively support the rift, (however pretty sure it will work on that as well)

edit... should have read whole thread!.

Set between Half-Life and Half-Life 2, Alyx Vance and her father Eli mount an early resistance to the Combine's brutal occupation of Earth.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                www.half-life.com                                                                               
Well this looks pretty good and according to the support section on the site it supports all the major headsets including the tethered Oculus Quest! I am a little disappointed that is not out this year but I still have a few games to play and intend the binge on Red Dead 2 when it his Steam next month.

Not convinced yet.

I don't like aliens, but I do like washing machines.

So it may still be for me.

Must admit the trailer felt 'familiar' so may be I'm more comfortable in the Half-life universe than I thought.

It looks fantastic, graphics look beautiful both technically and artistically. If it has the dynamic resolution scaling of robo repair throughout, I'm drooling!

Looks scary though. Seeing a headcrab leap at the screen... I'm not sure I wanna experience that in VR!

Trailer looks terrific, I'm on board the hype train!

Cue lots of moans from the pancakers...

I need this game in my veins. Right NAO!!!  

After seeing that trailer I am now on the Hype Train.

It's a shame that we won't get one of the main benefits of playing Half Life in VR seeing Alyx's arse up close in VR.
